It may be a good idea, or it may not.

You should discuss this with your clients. Also, set some price for it (people tend to discount the value of free, plus just b/c your customers will accept a free x does not mean they value x). My $.02.

That's a good idea. I actually just bounced it off one of my users and they thought it would be great, but I often get flattering responses when I ask my users if they would like X because they already like us for solving a real pain.

I just realized you're saying I should give them a price even if I plan to give it away for free. That's smart. Thx.
